HC Deb 26 July 1897 vol 51 c1080
MR. KNOX

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether he can explain why the grant for evening continuation schools in Ireland is only £500, as against £124,000 in England and £63,000 in Scotland.

MR. GERALD BALFOUR

The question of encouraging the establishment and maintenance of Evening Continuation Schools in Ireland is engaging the attention of the Commissioners.
